Chapter 1

Professor Ozpin let out a contented sigh. He had just finished one of the most tedious tasks of the year, choosing new students for the upcoming school year. The competition was close this year, and choosing was not as easy as it sounded. He was about to go and get a mug of well-earned coffee when he heard his scroll beep, it signalled that he had received a message. He opened his scroll in curiosity. The message read:

'You'll want to have a look at this. G'

His eyes widened, if G wanted him to look at something it must be important. He opened the attached file and gasped in surprise. It was a student profile.

Student

Name: Dante ?

Age: 17

Gender: Male

Appearance: Brown untidy hair, blue eyes, lean build

Battle Gear: White sleeveless kimono shirt with blue trims and symbol, combat boots, armoured blue trousers, white armbands with blue trims, light blue scarf with white glowing runes.

Personality: Dante is awkward around others, as he has not had much contact with others. However he is helpful, willing to listen and is the first one to crack a joke and the last to get one.

Graduated School: Unknown

Fighting style: A patient fighter, Dante relies on evasion tactics until he spots a weakness in his opponents defence

Weapon

Name: Rising Soul

Weapon Form(s): Katana/Sniper Rifle

Abilities: Unknown

To say Ozpin was baffled was to put it lightly. How could the Student profile have no information on the boy's second name, the school he graduated and the abilities of his weapon? He sighed, but if G had personally recommended this child, he must be special. Ozpin reached into the draw under his desk. One more application, then a well-earned mug of coffee.

Dante yawned. It was way too early in the morning to be up and about,

"Damn you Aunt Jenny for making me go get the post!" He thought. He rounded the corner and came to the post office.

"Why can't you get your post delivered to our post box like a normal person, Aunt Jenny?" He had asked her multiple times but her answer was always to change the topic. The bell rung as he opened the door.

"Ah, Dante. How are you today?" The man behind the desk asked.

"It's too early to get up." Dante replied, the man chuckled.

"Yeah, I can agree with that. Here some post came just now. It's for you." He reached under the desk and pulled out a thin envelope with a seal in the corner, Dante struggled to see it, then he realised and his eyes widened. He grabbed the envelope and threw a couple of notes on the counter.

"Thankyoubye!" He said hurriedly then ran out the door.

"Wait! Dante your change!" The postmaster shouted after him, but Dante was long gone. He chuckled.

"He's just like you Brian." He muttered under his breath.

Dante ran into the kitchen and tore open the envelope, he was greeted by an application form. He fell to the floor.

"YESSS!" He screamed, like he'd just won the lottery. He heard a groaning from upstairs.

"Dante! Can you keep it down?" His aunt asked. Dante laughed with joy,

"I'm sorry Aunt Jenny, but I just got a Beacon application." There was a pause then his Aunt magically appeared at the bottom of the stairs in her dressing gown. She was crying.

"Oh my dust! Are you serious Dante?" He nodded and she cried with joy.

"So when do you leave?" He looked at the application then his eyes widened with shock.

"In 10 minutes." He said. Then bolted upstairs to get changed and to grab his weapon while his aunt made a quick breakfast. He grabbed a piece of toast and attached his weapon to his belt then rushed out the door, towards the central plaza where the dust airship was scheduled to land. Dante rushed past the crowds of crying parents and bolted towards the ship. The ramp was closing and in a rush of adrenaline Dante jumped…And just managed to squeeze inside the ship. He breathed a sigh of relief.

"Well, that was close." He thought. Then grinned like an excited child. He was on an airship to Beacon. BEACON! The best combat school for upcoming hunters and huntresses. He thought of his family, and his smile faded.

"Don't worry, mom and dad. I'm going to become a hunter, then I'll find him, and take my revenge."

Dante shook his head of future thoughts and instead focused on the present, his new life started now!

"Ugh, just decided I don't like flying!" Dante groaned as his stomach churned again, he was dangerously close to vomiting. He decided to turn his attention to something other than the window. A sudden 'greetings' from the holographic television caught his attention.

"Welcome new students "the voice said "I am Glynda Goodwitch, a professor at Beacon. You are among a privileged few who have received the honour of being selected to attend this prestigious academy. Our world is experiencing an incredible time of peace, and as future hunters and huntresses, it is your duty to uphold it. You have demonstrated the courage needed for such a task, and now it is our turn to provide you with the knowledge and training to protect our world."

As the holographic woman finished her speech a huge academy came into view, all the students on the plane stared in awe at the huge academy that they would be spending four years at. As the plane landed Dante watched in amusement as a boy with blonde hair rush to the trash can, and then proceeded to be sick.

"At least I avoided that!" Dante chuckled to himself. A voice over the loud speaker announced that the opening ceremony would commence in an hour. Dante looked around and yawned, he decided he would rest on the grassy embankment, to his left, for the next hour as he had had an early morning (Thanks Aunt Jenny!). He detached Rising Soul from the belt on his hip and set it down next to his back, he closed his eyes and drifted into sleep.

He awoke to the sound of jeering and a pained groan. Leaping to his feet he quickly located the source of the noise, the blond haired boy he had seen earlier was being pushed around by four much bigger and much meaner boys.

"Please, stop." The blond haired boy groaned as one of the boys shoved him to the ground.

"Quiet Vomit Boy!" He growled, and for extra emphasis proceeded to kick 'Vomit Boy'. Deciding he couldn't let this go on Dante grabbed his katana and transformed it into his sniper rifle. Taking careful aim he calmly shot four normal shots, each of them hit millimetres form the four bullies' feet.

"What the hell? Who was that?" The boy wearing a chestplate shouted. In response Dante fired another round of shots, hoping to draw the bullies from the blond haired boy.

"Whoever you are, you better watch out!" The boy threatened while backing off, at his last words he took off towards the entrance hall.

"Cardin! Wait for us!" A boy in green shouted and the other three took off in pursuit of their leader.

"Idiots." Dante said while shaking his head, he ran towards the blond haired boy who was curled up on the floor covered in bruises, he looked on the verge of crying.

"P-Please don't hurt me!" He stammered.

"Don't worry, I scared those idiots away. I'm Dante what's your name?" Dante asked.

"I'm Jaune, thanks for helping me but you shouldn't have, those guys will target you as well!" Jaune said clearly relieved that Dante wasn't going to hurt him.

"I don't care. Seems an hour is gone though, lets head back to the main entrance!" Dante said, he held out his hand for Jaune to take.

"Oh yeah! I forgot about that! Ok let's go!" Jaune took Dante's hand and stood up.

"Umm do you know the way back?" Jaune asked.

"Nope!" Dante said…. "CRAP!"
